FIFA has been corrupt forever and the first time they were investigated by any government really was the US after the whole Qatar scenario. So he's not actually wrong about that. But he's still a moron and guilty as hell.

"Jack Warner is the former vice president of FIFA and was among those arrested last week for his part in the scandal that rocked world football. As noted by the BBC, the Trinidad official "is facing extradition to the US after his arrest on corruption charges."Therefore, it is no surprise that he is not the USA's biggest fan at the moment. His disdain led him to post a rambling, eight-minute-long video on his Facebook page, in which he suggested America's corruption clampdown was motivated by their desire to host the World Cup.To illustrate his point, he whipped out an article from the American media just after the five-minute mark in the video below.Only problem was the article came from a satirical news website, the Onion. The Onion's article was entitled "FIFA Frantically Announces 2015 Summer World Cup In United States," and it was published on Wednesday afternoon.The article contained such nuggets as:At press time, the U.S. national team was leading defending champions Germany in the World Cup’s opening match after being awarded 12 penalties in the game’s first three minutesAfter being arrested last week, Warner was taken to hospital complaining of exhaustion, but he was seen dancing at a rally soon afterwards, as noted by Ed Aarons of the Guardian (h/t New FIFA Now): He also compared himself to Gandhi and Nelson Mandela in a speech to supporters."
